So there is a new government in place and after much anti-Tory sentiment on facebook I have decided to write some of it here. We have seen an Eton Toff put in place to represent nothing but a select part of the country (I'm not talking about votes) with the support of a party which has surely sold its soul! Anyway I'm pleased my visa is through, I'm pleased my flights are booked and now its just a case of doing everything else.
So everything else...............VIT registration so that we can both teach out there, yet more evidence gathering. The difficulty is ensuring that a) you have all the evidence b) you don't cock it up first time of asking. Its trying to make the transition between the language of British qualifications and Australian forms that causes most confusion. Clearly in Oz they place a lot of emphasis on being exact with how much experience you have, whereas in UK its more about saying 'yeah you did what you needed, now go sort those kids out.'
We are excited but having had quotes for everything, after speaking to all sorts of people we have to make some decisions now. We've done everything and nothing! Role on the next 105 days!
Olly
